The carols fill the speakers
Of the car that holds tree
The weather bites a little as you snuggle up to me
We drive up to your parents' house
The snow has all been ploughed
The mistletoe hangs over us
Like a dark, dense cloud
I can't please your family
And I don't like your friends
We made it to Christmas
But this is how it ends
Your mom thinks I'm quiet
Your dad understands
Your fellas are onto me
This is how it ends
Before these season's celebrations
I had no excuse leave
You are sweet and kind and wonderful
Baby It's not you It's me
Your sister knows I've led you on
I've gotta let you be
I don't know how to tell you
Should I just wait till New Year's Eve?
The party is over
And so are we
Santa clause is comin' to town
And he's skipping my house this time around
Because baby I knew better
It's too late to make amends
After I give you back your present
Maybe we could just be friends
So Merry Christmas darlin'
This is how it ends
